Canon (canonical) material is anything that is considered to be true according to the creators’ lore. For example, in Star Wars, it is canon that Vader is the father of Luke and Leia. Headcanon, on the other hand, is anything that a fan considers true. Usually headcanons are beliefs that are things not explicitly stated in canon. A common, silly example of a headcanon is that Jar Jar is a Dark Lord. Headcanons can be as plausible or implausible as a person wants, as long as they have their reasons for believing in them.
